I searched quite a few webpages, some says that it is beneficial (as the one I cite), some say that it is bad, especially if a person is genetically a night owl, and I suspect that websites as Fortune, Virgin, Forbes, etc. have an interest to say people that they should wake up earlier and work harder. Anyway, Harvard medical school and some researches also recommends getting up earlier (and going to bed earlier). But it seems that there is not so much scientific references about it. What are your thoughts?

I personally find waking early better. My “good” routine is waking up at 6am and going to bed around 11pm.

Unfortunately I enjoy staying up late a lot because I find night time relaxing since it is the only time of day I can truly have to myself.

That’s reason number 1 on the article you linked. That you will be able to churn out more surplus value for your employer.

Same for me, also, even when tired, I am looking for some fun watching phone (like Lemmygrad, Hexbear memes etc.), what actually seems to be bad for sleep…
